It seems useful to have a generic and platform-independent method to
read and write to a serial port without blocking. This is the write part.

This allows to get rid of the explicit temporary disabling of blocking I/O in
serprog's sp_synchronize().

It seems useful to have a generic and platform-independent method to
read and write to a serial port without blocking. This is the read part.

It stores the current blocking properties before disabling blocking and
restores them after reading. The timeout is implemented as previously
by retrying every millisecond until the timeout is reached or enough
characters are available.

MSDN says: "The baud rate at which the communications device
operates. This member can be an actual baud rate value, or one of
the following indexes." But it is not specified what happens for
different values, so we round down to valid ones (or to the minimum
of 9600) by reusing the existing struct baudentry sp_baudtable[] and
the new function round_baud().

Do similarly on non-Windows where arbitrary values are not allowed
anyway.

Serialport_write could loop endlessly when used with a seemingly valid port

Add return values to sp_synchronize so we can signal a failure to the
only upstream caller (serprog_init), which is prepared to propagate a failure.

sp_sync_read_timeout was harder to fix because it already used a return
value, but we needed to distinguish two different failure modes. This
solution distinguishes them by the sign of the return values, which maintains
readability as much as possible.

Thanks to Niklas Söderlund for the original patch and idea.

In the long term the exit calls should be replaced by returns.
until then this is the correct way to handle failures.

the casts are not needed (in C) and we don't cast malloc return values anywhere else.

 - Makefile: Use $(OS_ARCH) to add some MinGW-specific workarounds and
   settings, so that a simple "make" is sufficient on MinGW (instead of
   manual Makefile hacking).

 - Explicitly set CC=gcc in the Makefile, otherwise you get an error like
   "cc: command not found" on MinGW.

 - MinGW doesn't have ffs(), use gcc's __builtin_ffs() instead.

 - Add /usr/local/include and /usr/local/lib to CPPFLAGS/LDFLAGS, that's
   where libusb-win32 and libftdi stuff is usually placed on MinGW/MSYS.

 - Disable serprog (no sockets) and all PCI-based programmers (no libpci)
   for now. That leaves dummy, ft2232_spi, and buspirate_spi enabled on
   MinGW per default.

 - serial.c: Use correct type for 'tmp', both on Windows/MinGW (DWORD)
   and POSIX (ssize_t).

This patch attempts to resolve some programmer shutdown ordering issues
by having the programmer init functions register shutdown callbacks explicitly
wherever it makes most sense. Before, assumptions were made that could lead to
the internal programmer's state changing before the external programmer could be
shut down properly. Now, each programmer cleans up after itself and (hopefully)
performs each operation in the correct order.

As a side-effect, this patch gives us a better usage model for reverse
operations such as rpci_* and rmmio_*. In the long-run, this should make
reversing the initialization process easier to understand, less tedious, and
less error-prone.

In short, this patch does the following:
- Registers a shutdown callback during initialization for each programmer.
- Kills the .shutdown function pointer from programmer_entry struct. Also,
  make most shutdown functions static.
- Adds a few minor clean-ups and corrections (e.g. missi...

Thanks to Johannes Sjölund for reporting that the Bus Pirate init could
not deal with a Bus Pirate which is already in binary Bitbang mode.

This is caused by a combination of the slowness of the Bus Pirate, the
slowness of USB and a fast serial port flush routine which just flushes
the buffer contents and does not wait until data arrival stops.

Make the Bus Pirate init more robust by running the flush command 10
times with 1.5 ms delay in between.

This code development was sponsored by Mattias Mattsson. Thanks! Tested
a few dozen times, should work reliably.

Programmer specific functions are of absolutely no interest to any file
except those dealing with programmer specific actions (special SPI
commands and the generic core).

The new header structure is as follows (and yes, improvements are
possible):
flashchips.h  flash chip IDs
chipdrivers.h  chip-specific read/write/... functions
flash.h  common header for all stuff that doesn't fit elsewhere
hwaccess.h hardware access functions
programmer.h  programmer specific functions
coreboot_tables.h  header from coreboot, internal programmer only
spi.h SPI command definitions
